Harvesters

This movie is nothing but a roller coaster ride from start to finish. I can't believe that a film like this never made the theaters! The plot was good, the acting was great, and the special effects...THEY ROCK! Hot chicks, cool deaths, and kickin music make this film a must see! You got to get the DVD though, just for the behind the scenes documentary. Joe Ripple, Don Dohler and Sean Quinn put everything they had into this film, and it shows! You guys ROCK!

I'm wondering why nobody has mentioned Pamela Mones' involvement with the film. As a woman screenwriter, the movie clearly shows the influence of her input into the character-driven film as well as the horror elements that Don Dohler is known for. To ignore the contribution of one of the writers downplays how this film got such favorable reviews compared with other Dohler films, especially regarding story structure and tightly scripted scenes. It would make an interesting project for some film student to compare Dohler's earlier works (and those since Havesters) to determine if gender in fact influences the medium of film.

You will enjoy every cheesey second of this cinemagraphic tour-de-force! This movie has the best blood bath scene ever! Joe Ripple not only directs this masterpiece but also has a costarring role as a U.S. Marshal. There are special effects that you won't believe as well as an incredible surprise ending that will leave you stupified. Wake up if you don't have a DVD player and go get one today, because the special edition of this one of a kind film has a 30 minute documentary filled with interesting facts about the making of The Harveters, something I assure you, should not be missed! Lucas beware, CGI has a new master and it's name is Time Warp Films.

I just have to say this was the first movie I learned of two people I have come to admire their work since first seeing them. One is Director Joe Ripple which I have seen all of his films since this one. I also began to admire Leanna Chamish one of the main actresses in this film whom I have also followed her career since. Both did a great job with this film and I certainly became a fan after seeing this film. I think its one of the best Independent films I have seen along with a lot of their other stuff. Joe Ripple has done an excellent job in the independent horror film scene and is certainly continuing to grow his following. He is truly a guy who is dedicated to making each of his films better and truly enjoys what he does. As well, Leanna Chamish who worked on this film with him continues to work with him getting better with each film she does as well. Both are real people who love the art of what they are doing beyond making a big name, or just big bucks for themselves. Truly if you watch a lot of the behind the scenes stuff in any of Ripple's movie one quickly learns what a giving and honestly nice guy he is. I for one would love the chance to work with him in a movie even if I just got killed off in a quick scene would certainly be worth it to me.

Watched it both on VHS & DVD! This is Don Dohler's best ever film and guaranteed to please his long time fans as well as new recruits. Joe Ripple deserves kudos for his directorial debut and should be motivated to do another film as quickly as possible. Here is hoping that Dohler and Ripple team up again to scare the "crap" out of us and make our "guts" churn with heart thumping mayhem! Don't miss this bloody epic!
